Justins Pin On Ceremony

Being sworn inAfter the beating! OUCH!
Me getting my swing ready! (Britten looking scared!)

Last Wednesday was Justin's Pin On Ceremony. He is officially Staff Sargent Steffens. The tradition for pinning on is to have someone on each side of you punch you as you receive your new stripes. I was able to be on one side, and one of Justins friends, Sgt Pierson was on the other side. I really didn't get a good hit because Britten started crying, but Justin said that the other side hurt pretty bad! We are so proud of Justin and all of his hard work! He is our hero!
